Ross Lawhead is an author and illustrator (The Ancient Earth Trilogy, !Hero, The Death of Godman) and he joins us in the tent to discuss The Myth of Redemptive Violence and to help us ponder how to begin telling better stories. With Die Hard as our origin story, we dissect the surprisingly troubling Back to the Future, and parse out why the recent Marvel films typically tell a different kind of story than their DC counterparts. If you like what you hear, an extended conversation will be put up for our Patreon subscribers, where we discuss the works of Tarantino, Scorcese, and the Coen Brothers.
